Count kk Correspondence "I novor
know until today," said n well known
Georgia ollticiun, 'how Representative
Alton, of Mississippi, got thu nickname
Prlvjito' John Allen."
"How was it?" Bomebody asked.
"Ho wiib running for congress against
Ooncral Tuukor out in Mississippi and
Tuckor mado n speech ono day whoop
ing himself up on his war record. Ho
started out by Haying in Btontorian
voice: I Blopt ono night before the
battle in a tent- '
"Thin wbb enough for A lion. When
ho got up to Bpcak ho said: 'VeH, boys,
General Tuckor did Bleep in that tent
that night, and I Btood guard on picket
around that tent. Now, all you hero
today who Hlept in tontn vote for Tucker,
but thoso who Btood guard in the rain
and cold vote for John Allen." From
that momont to thin ho Iiub been called
'Private' John Allen. Of course ho was
elected.
Mrs. Crisp is a Qoorgia woman, born
and bred, with many of the ideas, man
ners and tastes peculiar to the southern
lady of thirty years ago. Her father,
Mr. Burton, was before the war a man
of groat wealth, but, after tho conflict
was over ho had little besides his prido
in still being "a southerner and a gentle
man, Bah." .It was at tho cIobo of tho
war that Mr. Crisp appeared in Ellavillo
and speedily fell captive to tho charms
of Miss Clara Hello Burton, a blithe
some, coquettish maiden, with a wealth
of brown hair which, according to tho
fashion of tho time, she wore floating
ovor her BhouldorH. Now, young
Charlie Crisp wus but the son of poor
"plajor folk," and Mr. Burton said llatly
that his daughter should not marry a
poor man. Naturally, tho young couplo
woro discouraged, and his verdict might
have had some weight with Miss Clara
Belle if at this juncture Mr. Crisp had
not boon taken seriously ill ynd horo is
whoro the romanco proper begins. Tho
doctor who was called to attend him
happened also to bo a trusted friend of
tho Burtons, and Miss Clara persuaded
him to send her regular bulletins of tho
progress of his patient. In ono of thorn
ho betrayed some uneasiness as to the
outcome. Immediately this plucky
young woman insisted upon knowing
whothor her lovor was receiving tho
care and attention he should, and
furthermore said that it ho wus in need
of particularly tender nursing she would
at onco hnvo tho marriage ceremony
performed between them so that sho
hersolf might rightfully take her place
at his bedside. This proved to bo tho
turning point in Mr. Crisp's illness, and
it might almost bo said of his life.
Hitherto, tho discouragements incident
to poverty had possessed him, but thou
and there ho banished all helplessness
and despair of his future. Ho said to
tho doctor: "Get me up from this bed.
.Henceforth I will bo a man. My lifo
shall bo consecrated to a woman with
such pluck as that. I will marry her
in spite of my jmvorty and sho shall
novor bo ashamed of mo." Ho has kopt
his word, and Mrs. Crisp lias often said
that never for u momont has she re
gretted that sho married him. Mrs.
Crisp is a rare good housekeeper, and
what is stranger still in these "emanci
pated" days, she is very fond of the
work. In thoir southern home Mrs.
Crisp's chief source of prido is a rose
garden, in tho cure of which sho spends
much of her timo. Her recreations are
mainly thoso of writing letters to ubsont
inombers of the family and intimute
friends and rcudlng tho newspapers,
Shods well iosted on tho affairs of tho
day; though-eho-is not nt ull given to1
the discussion of thorn. Perhaps her
intorcst is stimulated by tho prominont
position occupied by her husband, for
nothing pleases her so much us to tind
mention for him or quotations of his
opinions. She has a scrap book in
which she pastes these clippings, and in
timo it will become a precious heirloom,
m
It is to bo regretted that Mr. Van
Alon, tho newly-appointed ambassador
to Italy, should have taken any notice
whatever of tho newspaper attacks
mado upon him. His replies to tho
assertions made by the World and
other journals go farther than anything
else to indicate tha. ho is a weak man.
The tierce onslaught mado upon him by
Pulitzer was plainly tho outcome of
personal spite. Pulitzer has a private
grudge against the president, to begin
with. Ho cannot make tho World Into
a republican newspaper, but he would
like to weaken Mr. Cleveland as far as
x)ssiblo. It is generally believed that
Pulitzer exMcted an Important foreign
mission as rqward for his services in
getting votes for Mr. Cleveland, and
thoso intimate with him are aware that
his rage is tremendous now that he has
been passed ovor and ignored. Added
to this, it is probable that Mr. Pulitzer
Is especially antipathetic to Mr. Van
Alon for tho very absurd reason that
the gentleman is a member of tho social
Hot into which, despite nil his supremo
struggles, the proprietor of tho World
can novor bo received. There is, in
fact, no question but what tho entire
war waged against this npolntiuont, bo
far as the World is concerned, springs
from the meanest and most spiteful of
motives, and therefore should have been
treated with contempt by Mr. Van Alon.
Tho gontloman has, however, scon tit to
talk about it, and thereby weakens his
position immensely. I am sorry that he
should not have preserved his dignity
Biifliciontly to keep silence. '

Tho august representatives of foreign
jKiwers resident in Washington are
gradually returning to their respective
oftlciul residences from the summer
haunts by sea and mountain, which
they have this season graced with thoir
high and mighty diplomatic prosouco.
Tho Swedish and Portuguese ministers
are already at thoir posts, and most of
the others aro expected in tho courso of
the next two weeks. The numberless
diplomatic notabilities of the South
American republics are, with few ox
ceptions, ull mustered, and will, pro
bably, have more to say for themselves
this winter, from a social point of view,
than has been tho case for some years
past.
Tho Mexican minister and his wife,
who have just returned frnn a pro

at their old quarters on I street, and
will in u short time have as their guest
the sister of Mr. Romero, Sennra Luz
Romero Garces. Tho latter will bo re
membered to have, as u young girl,
assisted her mother in presiding over
the Mexican legntion in tho days of
Sonor Romero'B bachelorhood. Sho
has been travelling in the United States
with somo friends of tho Pan-American
Medical congress, und is at present in
Chicago doing tho world's fair, whenco
she is oxpectod in Washington in tho

Tho reported engagement of MIhb Mc

Is now n topic of interest to tho lady's

of tho engagement, gossip has it that

When other things aro dull the news
piior business gots what Is technically
called n move on itself, and shows signs
of an activity doddedly in advance of
tho times. For the last ten years, at
intervals of a few months, thero has
been talk of another morning paper in
Lincoln whose particular mission it
would be, again using a technical ex.
prcssion, "to buck tho Journal?' but
somehow or other the Journal has nil
these years gone along, pursuing tho
oven tenor of its way undisturbed by
any bucking rivals. The ambitions of
thoso persons who would establish a
rival morning newspaper have been all
right; but tho iockot books of tho
aspiring gentlemen have not been com
mensurato with their ambitions, and tho
project, after being aired for an appro
priate vriod, has invariably been put
to sleep. To successfully cotujiete with
the Journal in its own Held would re
quire a capital of from $50,000 to 9100,
000, and that amount of money Is not
easy to raise, oven in such un alluring
undertaking as tho newspaper business,
in which thero nre so many millionaires.
And right hero Tin: Couimkk would
remark that while there may be some
reason for the many objections that are
from timo to time raised to tho Journal,
yet tho fact remains that no town of
Lincoln's size produces anything better,
taking everything into consideration.
It is asserted, und probably with some
truth, that tho reason why so many
people in Lincoln take morning naps is
because a nap is un almost inevitable
sequence to a persttsul of the Journal,
but then a nap isn't a bad thing, and it
Ih a great deal bettor for our contem
porary to put people to Bleep by its
peaceful tone than it would ho to give
them hysterics by wild sensationalism,
such as so many daily nowspapors in
dulge in.
This is about tho schedule timo for
tho appearance of tho Rumor of a Now
Morning Nowspapor, and it doesn't dls
appoint tho public. This timo it is to
bo a democratic paper, and it is, us usual,
to bo "backed by ample capital."
Whether it is to usurp Major Calhoun's
own special und particular prerogative,
that of grand Booster Up ami Rubber
Down of Congressman William Jennings
Bryan, or whether it will tie itself to
Tobo Castor's administration push cart,
our informant saith not. However, tho
now dally paper will not be started to
day, or tomorrow, or tho next day, and
probably not for several dajs to come.
A. Koch-Andriuno is another man
who went out of tho newspaper business
and attempted to stay out and who
finally went back in again. Strange
that u mun who bus onco been in the
businefis can never stay tint of it. In
many respects it is tho meanest busi
ness on earth, and while there aro some
millionaires in it, most of 'em are jioor
tnon, who seem to got poorer, und who
tlnd it hard work to keep themselves in
tobacco and at the same time keep tho
wolf from tho door. If the men en
gaged in the newspaper business would
go into farming and jHiund tho earth
with as much zeal as thoy work ut the
desk they would nil get rich; but thoy
prefer to bo happy, though poor. Mr.
Andriano, however, is a man who in any
ono of his several lines can achieve sub
stantial success. Ho volunturily selects
tho one in which tho most diftlculty is
to bo encountered. A few days ago it
was unnounced that ho had assumed
the business management of tho Call,
Tiik Coukikk is informed that a com
plete ro-orgnnizntion of that puper is in
immediate prospect, ihe intention is
to strengthen tho paper in every way,
and push it forward us rapidly us
K)ssiblo. Tho Call has somo good
points in its favor nnd with such ability
as Mr. Andriano will display in the
business office, and with Messrs. Bush
nell und Cox, both of whom are well
equipped, in tho editorial department,
all animated by u spirit of enterprise, the
Call ought to come to tho front rapidly.
Tin: Coukikk wishes all of its contemp
oraries success, and this paper bestows
its entire good will on tho rejuvenated
Call, But wo again remind Mr. Bush
nell that he must not forget the bottoms.
Having commonced warfare against
that unfortunate locality Mr. Bushuell
and the Call cannot afford to desist
until they have achioveil their object,
tho obliteration of the bottoms. Go for
the bottoms! Keep It up!
Then thoio is a change in tho weekly
Held. Mr. Miekel, who has been with
tho Slate Journal font number of years,
has on one or two occasions jumped out
Ml
of the frying pun Into the lire, und after
more or lens scorching he has regularly
jumped back again into tho pan where
tho cooking Inii little slower. Now he has
jumped out again. The Fusttot-Mlokol
Printing company wiwt Incorporated a
week or so ago. This company, officered
by Mr. FiHsott, president; II, A. Mlckel,

, In accordance with it resolution of the
Nebraska State Teachers' association
passed nt its lust annual meeting, a pro
gram has been prepared by the com
mltteo apK)lnteil for that purpose,
looking to the observance of the an
niversary of tho discovery of America as
library day in tho schools of this state,
October 'JO. Superintendent J. S. Buor
has this week addressed the touchers of
Lancaster county on this subject by
circular. "All earnest teachers fully
appreciate the advantages of a good
library in school, and tire, I am sure,
anxious that their respective schools
shall have the benefit of good reading
matter, while the question of 'how to
secure these books,' presents possibly a
more troublesome stdo und while the
plans suggested by the Norlh-Wenlern
Journal of I'dneuUou aro excellent, the
success of library day depends very
much UM)ii thoearnestnessof the teacher
in currying out these plans, and in
milking such modifications us seem best
for his school," lie says: "Parents and
school officers should bo earnestly in
vited .to be present. School officers
should be asked to assist tho teacher In
soleetirg the books."
An important transaction has just
been effected by which the proprietor
ship of tho Hotel Lincoln, hitherto held
bytho linn of Shears .t Markel, passes
to Mrs. Samuel Shears who has pur
chased the interest in the hotel owned
by J. 10. Markel, of Omaha. The man
agement will continue as heretofore In
tho hands of Stewart Shears, who boiiio
mouths ago secured a considerable in
terest in the hotel, and tho public need
no assurance that tho Lincoln will be
maintained in the best possible manner,
Pyror L. Maikel who has been con

years, will probably return to Omaha.
The regular monthly meeting of the
prison reform association was held
Wednesday evening in tho V. M. C. A.
rooms, und the work of tho pust month
und plans for tho future were discussed.
Dr. Rhodes gave a very favorable report
on behalf of tho local committee, giving
instances in which a number of released
convicts had received ussistunco from
tho committee. His report showed an
increased interest in work und that un
effort will bo made to present their
plans to the public and so inteicst them
In it. The treasurer's report was also
quite favorable. Much personal ex
pense is being borno by the members of
tho organization, who lire working in
the interest of the public und believe
that if their plans nre once properly
presented and thoroughly understood,
tho people will bo quite liberal in help
ing towurd its support. Tho regulur
meetings of tho organization will bo held
the second Wednesday of euch month.
Many Lincoln people will remember
the child spoken of in the following
note taken from the Chicago Jnler
Ocean :
"Little Sara, the pretty and dainty
miss one hesitates to say child, she is
so very wise und mature in conversation
who danced so pleasingly with Lillian
Russell's company in 'La Cigalo,' is in
the city propuring to give un entertuiu
moiit. She has been in Washington and
elsewhere tilling engagements us it child
dansouso, but bus made up her sago
little mind to have u company of her
own if possible. Hen plan Is to huvo u
violinist or pianist and perhaps u vocal
ist tt travel with her and give parlor,
church and other entertainments, sho to
do her character und fancy dances. It
is to raise money to carry out this plan
that sho will give an entertainment,
local talent assisting, in Weber hall, the
afternoon of October SSI. Little Sara
will then introduce her younger brother,
Mimtor Frnnkio, who will dance and
recite. Little Sara is ono of tho bright
est of childien, and wears her eleven
joins with u dignity that is quite as im
pressive us amusing. She will please
those who patronize her, and is really
deserving of attention."

Lo.viion, Oct. 7. Special CotNiimt
Correspondence.) Tho London secret
police have just concluded successfully
one of tho most difficult ami delicate
pieces of work ever placed in their
hands by driving out of this country tho
most notorious blackmailer of the
present generation without tho necessity
for a public trial and Its attendant
scandals and revelations. The need for
secrecy was grout, for the oxtortlonor's
victims included several young princes,
und even one described us "standing
very near a throne," and elderly men
occupying prominent positions In tho
fashlopublo world. Therefore, when a
roiwtor commenced to Investigate tho
case obstacles of the most formidable
churucler mot him at every turn, but
sufficient Information has been obtained
to allow a story of tho conspiracy to bo
told, although In a somewhat Incomplete
manner. The leader of tho Infamous
gang was un American woman, Amelia
Haires, ulins Mmo Chionlo, an operatic
singer now about forty years old, lib
though sho looks much younger.
In 1881 Mine. Chionio and her mother
took u line house in the Chumps Elysoo,
which soon became the headquarters of
the fastest set In Purls and the rendezv
ous of the cleverest adventurers in the
French capital. Largo sums were oh
tallied in a vurioty of questionable ways,
but the necessary machinery was also
very expensive, and after a timo Chionlo
closed her grand establishment and ills
appeared. For several years sho lived
in London on her wits, of course- und
wus clover enough or lucky enough to
keep out of the hands of. the police.
Early In 1885 she returned to Puris und
took u tine house. Ono of her curliest
victims wus General D. Andleuu, the
chief culprit in the notorious decora
tiotis scandal, whose fall wus uudoub
tedly duo to this Amoricun strop.
Mine. Chionlo's formerly lurgo Income
from blackmailing, and immorality was
for somo time considerably uugiuuuted
by commissions on the sales of decora
tions, but ut length Purls became too
dangerous for her and she fled to Ixm
don in February, 1887. The ensuing
two yeurs were pussod In successful
blackmailing, the victims including a
member of a former liberal government,
who wus subsequently driven from
public life. In tho autumn of 18811
Amelia Huires, for sho now lived under
her roul nutne, mude the acquaintance
of an aged, wealthy baronet, who,
according to her varied experiences und
judgment of men, should have been an
easy prey, but the old mail proved to bo
a veritable tartar. Ho yielded liberally
enough to her blandishments but when
these in due course were succeeded by
threutB he set his buck against tho wall
und hit out hard. Amelia Huires hud
the superb audacity to bring an action
for breach of promise of marriage
against tho old gentleman und to carry
it to trial. Sir Charles Russell who
appeared for the defendant tore Amelia
Huires' reputution to tatters and laid
bare the wholo vile conspiracy us fur us
his client wus concerned, but the
muddlchcudcd jury failed to agree upon
u verdict und tho trial came to naught.
This was in April, 1800. Tho ad
venturess tied the country without at
tempting to reopen the brench of
promise action because the tough old
baronet had taken preliminary steps to
have her arrested for perjury nnd con
spirucy. No ono BtipiKiBod she would
have the courage orofTrontery to return,
but she did so, und early in 1801 re
sumed her old business in another
name and with changed methods. She
corresjionded with und recolved hor
victims us a woman, but she did not
reside ut her places of assignation. Her
fixed abode wus in un unfashionable
quarter of the city and she resided
there as a man.
She often went ulxnit diessed in male
uttire, and whon quite recently she was
run to earth sho wus actually living us
ii mun with u female accomplice, who
passed us her wife. By this strango
strategy she completely bullied the
jkiIIco for eighteen months, during
which she victimized wculthy men,
Englishmen and foreigners, to the ex
tent of muny thousands of Niuuds.
Sho puid flying visits to the continent,
but kept her headquarters in Loudon,
It was during one of hor trips to Paris
that she met the princo "standing very
near a throne." She had cajoled and
extorted from him 7,000 before he
ventured to protest. Then tho French
und English secret olice put their
heads together and decided that the
career of Amelia Huires must bo
! brought to u close. Evidence of crimi
, mil practices sufficient to obtain for
I her, under English law, penal servitude
submitted to her, when sho was llnnlly
found mi staled above. Amelia hud
grown comparatively rich mid she
shuddered at the thought ut a hard
prison life. The evidence In tho obsoh.
slon of the police tknroughly frightened
her and she cuplttiluted. Tho Hlco
woro prepared to arrest and prosecute
her but only as a last desnerutn re.
source. Tho chief concern- was to avoid
publicity and consequently tho ad
vonttiresH wan conceded' tile honors of
war, merely signing a full confession
and surrendering ull documents In hor
possession in consideration of being
allowed to leave the country with her
golden spoils lutuut.
Amelia Huires Is still well equlpied
montiilly and physically for the role of a
successful adventures! Although on
tho shudy sidti of forty she Is a good
looking woman, and Her milliners re

A mun or very good taste untl ot wide
experience said to me the other dayt
"I'm a. New Yorker, and proud of my
oity to somo extent, but tho fact In, in
many things wo are tho scum of tho
earth. Ono of the things in which wo
are despicable is our taste in drumutiu
art. in the language ot the profcosluii,
New York is u jay town. It prefers
what is sloppy to what ! urtiatle. I'll
give you only just ono proof of my argu
ment, hecuuso I'm in a hurry now.
'L'Enrunt Prodlgue' is playing' to miser
ubly small hntisi on ono side of Broad
way, und '1102' shows to standing room
only just opposite. I make no remarks,
but merely repeat that wo are the scum
of tho earth."
There was a good deal ot truth In thin
observation. Now York makes u busi
ness ot putrnnlzing bad and vulgur
pluyn and neglecting good ones. The
town is caught by every sort of device,
and seldom by the admirable thing.
My friend's illustration of thin wus uu
especially Btrong one. I should renlly
think that wu ought to despise ourselves
for preferring uu entertainment like
"1 102" to ono like "L'Enfant Prodiguo."
If -uu exhibition of Joseph Kopplor'n
cartoons were given in Paris, would tho
inhabitants prefer it to the Salon? Tho
contrast of merit in tho sumo in tho two
cases. Now York, from tho top to tho
bottom of Kb society, wants at this timo
to look at women's legs, and yawp ut
Idiot comedians. Physically and men
tally it rejects refinement and beauty in
stage art, und rtihhestoseetho turbulent
clown und the fat iimuzon. Tho piece
called "In Missoura" should bo playing
to very lurgo business at the present
timo; it cannot do it in Now York, but
can in almost any other city in thu coun
try. When that exquisite production of
"Friend Fritz" was made here lust
winter by the Muson-Munola company,
it drew a mere handful of people, but it
succeeds and is praised everywhere else;
in Chicago or in Boston I am suro
"L'Enfant Prodiguo" would draw im
mensely; hero everyone connected with
it will starve if they only stay long
enough. In London und Paris tho play
was a sensation. Wo turn up our noses
nt it and tlock to see "141)2." Three
cheers for Edward Eolus Rico and his
fat i hulunxes! This art loving im
